Session cookies: these are temporary cookies that stay in the browser’s cookie file until you leave the webpage, meaning none are saved on the user’s hard drive. Session cookies do not collect information from the user’s computer and, typically, store information about a session’s identifier that does not recognise the user. Information gathered through these cookies may be used to analyse the website’s traffic patterns, which could allow the provision of a better user experience to improve the content and facilitate its use.

Persistent cookies: are stored on a hard drive and our Website reads them each time you visit. A persistent cookie has a specific expiration date. The cookie ceases to work after that date.

Strictly necessary cookies such as those needed to browse correctly, are those that allow the services requested by the user to be carried out or cookies that ensure the web page’s content loads efficiently.

Third-party cookies such as those used by social media or external content sources.
